Why would I lick stamps?  I haven't bought a stamp that required sticking in years.  Maybe some people just lick them for fun? 

I don't think I've licked one George's fiance died from licking all those cheap envelopes for their wedding invitations.  That was a shame.

[Ewigkeit]

Come to think of it, I haven't licked a postage stamp since Troy fell to the Greeks.  I guess it's safe to say that licking stamps won't make many people obese.

I am not going to lick another stamp.Lol pinkroses

[Ewigkeit]

I seriously doubt whether anybody else is either.

Why are you still Licking stamps

[Ewigkeit]

I don't!  Whenever I have to use snail mail, I always use self-sticking stamps...They're really the rage nowadays.

The only Seinfeld episode I ever watched was when George's fiancee died from licking stamps for wedding invitations.

[Ewigkeit]

Were those stamps laced with poison?

[mandalee65]

If I remember right, she had an allergic reaction or something.

[Ewigkeit]

Of course anything whatsoever can happen in a drama or sitcom.  I suppose such an allergic reaction could actually occur in real life, though I've never heard of it.
